How to evaluate cultural projects? How to define value and use indicators in that context ? How to get communities and stakeholders involved, and how to make sure that the results are not put in a drawer ?

The Seminar on Social Innovation was held in Segovia, 6-7 April 2017. It was coordinated by Elvira Adeva from the Cultural Department of the City of Segovia and Ioana Crugel from the European Network of Cultural Centres, and hosted by La Carcel_Segovia Centre de Creacion.

Creativity is one of the keywords of post- and late modernism. The aesthetisation of the urban lifeworld has reached a point where it is almost the essential focus of economic, political and social competition.

Social innovation is time and context specific, with an important articulation to local political and cultural background. It encompasses a variety of topics - from social inclusion to economy and entrepreneurship, as well as education, governance and the environment.
